15 = 5(9-6)
6 years ago, Eve was 3. So, she is 9 today.
Dawn is 15 years old today. This is 5 times as old as her sister Eve was when Dawn was the age that Eve is today. How old is Eve today? Please help

Eve was 3, when Dawn was Eve's current age
there is NOT enough information to determine Eve's age
... she is older than 3 and younger than 15

upon further reflection...
the time between 3 and Eve's age, is the same as the time between Eve's age and Dawn's age
E - 3 = 15 - E
the time between 3 and Eve's age, is the same as the time between Eve's age and Dawn's age
E - 3 = 15 - E
